Tried It Tuesday {Stitch Fix}

I can't believe that it is almost MAY!! Many of you will be finishing your school year soon. Wahoo! Even though my last day with students is not until June 26th, I am starting the countdown too. :) This week's tried it is something fun I tried for ME!
It's Time for Tried It Tuesday! 

What have you tried at school or home?

My Tried It:
Stitch Fix

Have you ever heard of Stitch Fix? It's an online styling service where your personal "shopper" will handpick five items for you to "try" in the comfort of your own home! I am not the best shopper and feel like I never have time to shop, so this is perfect for me! I like to stay up on the latest trends, but I fail miserably. 

I read about how my BBB, Jivey from Ideas by Jivey tried Stitch Fix and knew I just had to try it too! My co-worker, Emily, also tried Stitch Fix and loves it too! She has recently started a blog, Style Closet to the Classroom, that you should check out. Emily has amazing ideas and is so talented. I'm always learning something from her!

Here are some quick answers to how Stitch Fix works from their website.

I love that the $20 styling fee comes off the price of an item if you keep anything from the box. So, if I buy a shirt that is $40, the $20 is taken off of that and it is only $20 for the shirt! Any items you don't want are sent back in the prepaid envelope that is included in your box (no additional shipping fee!). Easy peasy!!

I was SO excited when my box arrived last week!

Everything was packed nice and neat.

Inside was this note:

My first item was this accessory. This wasn't really "me" so I sent it back.

My next item was this black shirt and although I liked the style when I held it up, I thought that it made my shoulders look huge when it was on. I sent this back too.

I LOVE this Maxi dress and this was a keeper! It was $68 and can't wait to wear it in warmer weather. I'll probably wear a long, lightweight white cardigan with it to work. The angles of the stripes on the side made the dress so slimming (a plus for us women!). The dress is by ReneeC. I took this picture late at night after my workout and still have my hair tie on my wrist. Oops! My hubby also didn't get my cute strappy sandals in the picture. I'll try better next time to get better pictures. :)

My last two items were these honeydew skinny jeans and this white tunic blouse. Both keepers!! The jeans were my splurge at $88 but I couldn't resist. They are something that I wouldn't normally pick out and the material was so soft and comfortable. The jeans are by JustBlack and the tunic is by 41Hawthorn. I had my hubby take this picture yesterday morning before I left for work. 

If you are interested in trying Stitch Fix (the most you'll be out is $20!), I would love it if you would use my referral code! I get $25 in credit for anyone that signs up with my code! Yay!

I already have my next fix set for Wednesday, May 21st! :)
